Well don't we know about this, lots of dogs escape and there are various reasons for it, the most common one that Ive had to fix is separation anxiety. Staffies, Huskies, Malamutes seem to be the most prone breeds to suffer from anxiety and escaping.
You need to make sure your boundaries are secure first before you even begin to work on escaping and anxiety. Even little puppies can suffer from this, so you need to get your fencing etc. really secure and then see where you are at.
When your dog escapes, there are obvious dangers when they do get out, road safety, other people stealing your dog, council taking your dog to the pound and then you not knowing where to look.
Your canine needs good, strong leadership. This will be lacking if your dog has this type of anxiety. Basically your dog is thinking it needs to be looking after you and wondering where the 'pack' has gone and why they are out on the 'hunt' not him/her, which in their mind they think they need to be doing this and also looking out for your safety and survival.
Some of my clients dogs cant even be 1 metre away from them without the dog going hysterical, whining, barking, attention seeking, tantruming. We need to densitiise your dog to the pack being away from them and making them realising that in actual fact its not their role to look after you and your safety, but instead their role to just calm and relax.
Your behaviour around your dog is a big message to your dog as well as diet. Providing lots of enrichment for your dog when you leave the house is VERY important....don't let them think about you leaving, don't make a big deal of you leaving, work on triggers that affect them and a reaction from them. Use small triggers such as picking up the car keys, putting shoes on, picking up a bag of somekind. Do these simple little things around your dog and slowly start to densensitise him/her to the triggers.
Fixing these issues is not easy and in some cases they cant be fixed...dont believe a trainer/behaviourist can fix every problem, because they can't. Some issues that are severe can be managed but not always fixed.
Only turn to medication in consultation with your vet, not just because someone in your family or friends circle has suggested something. Medication is only a band aid fix, but used with behaviour work can produce a really good outcome.
Remember you dont wanna stress your dog out more than they already are....you wanna relax the dog and help him/her!

I really enjoy … I really enjoy watching all of these videos! I find them comprehensive, enlightening and easy to apply to my relationship with my own GSD. I like the approach, seems to be based on us as humans using our greater level of intelligence to understand the dog (behaviors/drives/instincts) and be responsible for communicating the right messages (by using that knowledge), and practicing until the dog understands too. Easy in theory. Practice makes perfect, for man and dog.

I’m so conflicted … I’m so conflicted over the tips you give- sometimes the things you’re advising owners to do are tips that I’ve found very effective in my own training, but the theory behind your methods doesn’t seem to have any basis in science. For example, I love the advice not to use the harsh tone or potentially threatening body posture for recalls, but I’d love to see the research that supports the trio of drives you’re using as the foundation for this advice.

A few potential … A few potential Defensive Drive commands I can foresee being necessary are: Heel, Sit, Down, Quiet, Let Go, Drop It, etc. You should obviously do all of these first in Prey Drive, and only when that has been mastered, THEN work on Defensive drive. You should work with a knowledgeable trainer in order to do this however, as Defensive Drive work, especially when done wrong, can cause your dog to lose trust in you. Prey drive work is fun for a dog, whereas Defensive drive work is emotionally rough.
GUMMYBEAYUH says: April 13, 2010 at 11:34 pm
Even though your … Even though your post is 10 months old,your problem is an obvious one (At least to an experienced owner such as myself). Your puppy will continue to cry for most of her crating time (Especially at night when she doesn’t notice any human activity),for most likely no more than One Week. This is perfectly normal,& it is the result of nothing more than her being homesick due to having just separated from her littermates. Every Puppy I’ve had has gone through the same process,just like Baby children!

Here are some tips on what to feed your puppy dog!
Keep your feeding simple. Always talk to your vet about what they recommend you feed your new puppy.
Don't give your puppy lots of choices, this will make them fussy.
Don't feed them human food, canines have certain dietary needs that high quality dog food has been specifically created to meet.
Always feed them the highest quality dry food your budget will allow.
Feed your puppy 3 times daily if possible up until 12 weeks of age.
Feed your puppy twice daily if possible up until 12 months of age.
Feed your puppy, puppy food until approx. 12 months of age and check with your vet when they are happy for your to switch your puppy to eating adult dog food.
Don't give in after a couple of mealtimes if your puppy doesnt eat the food, keep trying and they will eat it when they are hungry. If you give them too much variety they will get fussy.
The food best for your puppy is from your vet surgery, they sell the highest quality food available for your canine and the high quality food lasts longer as well.
Keep fresh water at all times available for your puppy.
Don't feed your puppy any COOKED bones....always raw.
How do you stop a dog from "crying" when crate training it? | Dog Training Tips Blog Dog Training Tips Blog The Real Poop How do you stop a dog from "crying" when crate training it?April 14th, 2010 | Author: adminHow To Crate Train Your Dog | ABC's of Crate Training how to train your puppy >>
Rottweiler, 10 weeks, been crate training for 3 weeks, always cries/ whines/ barks when placed in cage as if being punished. Tried shorter amounts of time, remaining in the area while she is in it, feeding her in/ out of the crate, but she still cries. She also chews her urine training pad into a million peices overnight!!! The only time she is hyper or misbehaves is in the crate.
She obviously hates it in there…I can see a use for crate training, if the owner has too many valuables and too little time to actually train a puppy….but I would never use a crate to teach my pup house manners, any more then I would keep my child in a cage…I just don’t get it..

You have got to walk away from her and the crate. Go outside, take a walk. As long as she can see you or hear you she will keep it up. By the time you get back she should be quiet. Also leave the crate open all of the time, except when she needs to be in it. After awhile she will find it to be her safe place. My dog cried at first, but by the next time he was fine. References :

if your dog only misbehaves in a crate, why is she in it??? it’s for dogs that misbehave. do you think it may be counterproductive? please let your dog out, i think it is cruel especially since there is no reason for it. References :
petsitterjoy says: April 15, 2010 at 6:35 am
Keep the crate door open when you have her out of the crate. Let her know that this isn’t a punishment house. When you must crate her, turn on a radio when you aren’t there. If it is at night, cover all but one side of the crate with a light blanket. Or put the crate in front of the t.v. and turn on a cartoon channel. Also throw treats in there when the door is left open. This way she will eventually go in to get the treats and see that she can come back out again. Buy a Kong and smear peanut butter or cream cheese inside, freeze it and then give it to her when she must be crated. Don’t use the piddle pads. Buy towels from garage sales and use those.

The first few days of crate training can be hard on you and the pup. The best thing for you to do is, put her in the crate and go to Wal-Mart or something. I promise after a few days, she will learn to love her crate. Dogs are den animals and she will consider this crate her private place. In time you will see her sneaking off to her crate when she wants to be alone, whether for a nap or for night night!! If you have friends or children over and she isn’t exactly fond of them, she will go get in HER bedroom!!! Crate training is also wonderful for traveling. It keeps them safe in a car or plane, and if you are going to see Aunt crabby who doesn’t like dogs, she can rest at ease!! Contrary to Carole Anne’s answer, it is not cruel, it is absolutely the best way to housebreak, and if you teach them confinement you will always be able to confine them if you have too, like on air planes or Motels, who will let you have your pet if it is confined without bothering the other guests. Oh, and don’t use piddle pads or any other pads. All your doing with these things are teaching her that is is OK to pee in the crate or worse in the house, which is what your trying to teach her not to do. You are defeating the whole purpose! Throw them away!!! Good luck! References : Vet tech/groomer 18 years

i know others have said this but it sounds like you’ve done everything but ignoring it. The crate needs to be a space just for the puppy. It has to be enjoyable. the way it’s doing that for itself is getting your attention. I would give it newspaper, instead of the potty paper (it has the same effect) and something fun to keep it busy. try a KONG toy with a little bit of peanut butter or wet dog food in the middle. this toy is just it’s crate toy, something that takes a while to do, and that is fun and doesn’t require human interaction. It might take more than a couple shots to get it to stop whining. but everytime you go to check on it when it does, or even worse, let it out, you are just reassuring the dog that it can manipulate you. It’s not about it being your friend, it’s about it becoming a well trained dog that can later become your friend! References : -animal trainer

Don’t feel sorry for her in there. She picks up on that. It does sound like she has separation anxiety, but can you imagen what would happen to your house if you would have to leave her? Cover the crate to create a more "cave" like feel that is a little more natural to them. My cocker didn’t liked it at first. but now it is her home, she growls at the cats when they get near it and also hides her toys in it, plus things she manages to steal out of the trash or of the counters, little stinker. I always put a treat in thereto make it a more pleasant experience. Good luck and stay tuff, you will not regret cratetraining your puppy. References :
RetardGirl says: April 15, 2010 at 8:54 am
You have to ignore her. Give her a toy or two to cuddle with, that will help. You will have to give her time since she is so use to sleeping with her siblings. Stuffed animals will remind her of them and she can cuddle with it. just like when she cuddles with her brothers and sisters. Try to keep her outside for at least an hour before bedtime or play with her or walk her before bed so she will be tired. Well good luck. References :

Okay , first of all I don’t think crate training works for every dog. I tried to crate train mine but then he found an easy solution to get out of the crate: peeing inside the crate! If your puppy is still crying, whining inside the crate after 3 weeks, then he does not want to be in the crate, buy a pet playpen and cover it w pee pee pads, put some toys,food and water inside! That worked perfectly for mine. I bought mine from target.com All dogs chew on the pee pee pad, it is not a big deal. Why do u even try to paper train a rottweiler? He is going to be a big dog and why would u want such a big dog doing his business in the pee pee pad? Start housetraining him by taking him outside. References :

good grief! Crates are supposed to be a safe haven for dogs.. If he is crying all of the time, it is not a safe haven, but a torture chamber..then you will wonder why he ’snaps’ and attacks you one day..He will be remembering the hell you put him though as a frightened baby.. Get a good book on basic pup training, and throw the darn crate away.. References :
pesothepaso says: April 15, 2010 at 10:51 am
Ignore the crying, do not remain in the area. And provide chew toys in the crate. Dogs like to have a place of their own and she will soon get over it and view the crate as "her house." References : Breeder of some of the finest APBT’s money can buy!
